my son had to wrestle a girl when he was in middle school. He showed her no mercy and won the match but was pissed that she was able to score one escape point on him. The girl continued to wrestle through high school and was nationally ranked as a female free style wrestler.

Good for your son.

I knew another girl who wrestled on a boys team in here in California. She's the daughter of a friend of ours. She was pretty good too, had a winning record.

There are seldom outlets for women's wrestling on the high school level. She eventually wrestled in College for about a year and was nationally ranked for women's collegiate wrestling. Her team mates 'adopted' her and watched over her like she was their sister.

Now she's into Karate. :)
